5 Musicians You've Been Sleeping On
Kaique Rocha

It’s hard to know all the artists who are making music these days, especially the ones who are producing masterpieces but are tucked away at the same time. And with warm weather on the horizon, we’re all looking for our summer soundtrack. Well, here are five artists you’ve been sleeping on that can help complete your soundtrack.

1. Jaden Smith

We all know Jaden Smith as the philosophical son of Will Smith. Maybe you remember Jaden’s music from 2014, or maybe you slept on that, too. But Jaden brought a freshness to rap that makes me wish for summer so I can blast "SYRE" at all times of the day.

2. BROCKHAMPTON

Arguably one of the best boy bands of all time. Not a boy band in the sense of the Backstreet Boys, no organized dancing to pop music, but a group of guys who create absolute masterpieces. They appeared on MTV’s TRL in February 2018 and are slowly making their way out of the shadows. If you haven’t heard of BROCKHAMPTON, you need to educate yourself.

3. George Ezra

You might remember Budapest or Barcelona from his last album that came out in 2015. But Ezra’s newest album is the indie folk album you didn’t know you were missing. Need a feel-good song? A song to vibe to? One to cry to? He’s got them all and you need to experience them.

4. The Neighbourhood

They’ve released a lot of music since "Sweater Weather" was overplayed in 2013. The California beach vibe hasn’t been lost, but they’ve transformed from the wholesome-sweetness of "I Love You". The Neighbourhood has this smoky beach vibe, like a California hipster bad boy. It’s the indie music you’ve been waiting for.

5. BØRNS

You need a flower child to counter your bad boy. BØRNS is your flower child. His newest album "Blue Madonna" transports you to a futuristic world where you don’t need to depend on anyone. The album speaks volumes on living independently and living it successfully. Wanna feel like you can be a flower child and kill a man at the same time? BØRNS.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
